Heat Pump Heating & Cooling Installation San Francisco Bay Area

A Building Efficiency heat pump HVAC system will increase comfort, energy savings, and enhance indoor air quality in your San Francisco Bay Area home.

Building Efficiency installs heat pump heating and cooling systems that are functional and environmentally friendly. Heating or cooling your home typically accounts for 2/3 of your utility bill. Building Efficiency customers reduced their utility bills up to 50% after a whole-home energy upgrade. Building Efficiency offers heating options that fit your budget, ranging from top-of-the-line efficiency to comfort models.

All-electric heating and cooling technology, like heat pumps and ductless mini-splits, transfer heat instead of creating it. When heat builds up on a summer day, a heat pump efficiently transfers it back outdoors, ensuring a cooler and more comfortable home. In the winter when your living space has cooled down, heat pumps transfer heat from outside air to indoors, warming the air in your home.

Efficient Heat Pump HVAC Systems

Our home energy upgrade experts have designed and installed hundreds of efficient heating systems in the San Francisco Bay Area. Most heating issues are the result of systems that are not properly designed or installed. Building Efficiency will correct these problems, or install an efficient new system that better fits your needs and lifestyle.

Installing properly balanced and performing heat pump HVAC systems will enhance your home comfort. Humans are extremely sensitive to temperature changes and even a few degrees of unnecessary heat or cold can make your home uncomfortable and unwelcoming. Installing a heat pump HVAC system will make your indoor temperature stable and comfortable, and provide a healthy home environment.

Indoor air quality studies by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) show that indoor air may be 2 to 5 times more polluted than outdoor air, highly concerning given that Americans on average spend up to 90% of their time indoors. Indoor air quality can be affected by your heating and cooling system and impact your family’s health. Highly efficient air filters and purifiers installed by Building Efficiency will improve indoor air quality and also qualify for rebates.

Efficient Cooling

Cooling systems vary widely depending on need and duration of use. We can install heat pump HVAC cooling systems, air conditioning systems, whole house fans and other custom solutions.
Conditioning the air in your home is extremely important. While there are other elements of home performance that impact air temperature, such as insulation and air sealing, installing a heat pump home cooling system can make summers much more comfortable.

Air Conditioning

Adding a high efficiency air conditioning system to your home can make summer days and nights more comfortable and help maintain a constant temperature within your home.
Building Efficiency installs high efficiency Carrier air conditioning systems that will cool your home without increasing your PG&E bill. We design custom systems to fit your home and habits that will keep you cool all summer.

Whole House Fan

A whole house fan harnesses and moves cool air throughout your home in an energy efficient manner. These fans are placed in your attic and bring cool air into your home and keep your home comfortable. Environmentally and financially friendly, a whole house fan is a great way to cool your home.

Review

Highly recommended. David and his team are all very professional and knowledgeable. From the virtual review of my project all the way through to completion, everyone was helpful as I navigated the very complex topic of electrifying my hot water and heating system. All members of the team were friendly and patient with my numerous questions. They also were responsive every time I reached out and they completed the project within the timeframe they estimated. If you are doing any energy upgrades o… Read more

Building Efficiency installed insulation into my 1800 sf San Francisco house (which had no insulation prior) at the end of 2021. Insulation was installed both into the exterior facing walls (via holes in the interior drywall) and into the very low clearance attic crawlspace (maybe 1.5-2 feet of clearance). They were willing to crawl in the very small attic crawlspace to get the insulation installed – which was impressive b/c the clearance was so low.  Day-to-day life in the house is complete… Read more

We hired Building Efficiency to convert our failed gas water heater to an energy-efficient electric heat pump water heater. David Hamburger did the site review/estimating; and office manager, Mae Adams, handled the admin and rebates. We all worked very well together. Building Efficiency also coordinated nicely with an electrical company doing other upgrades in our home to locate a new 220V/240V line to the site. The Building Efficiency installation team was also very professional and swift in th… Read more

Building efficiency replaced our two 25 year old gas furnaces with heat pumps in late 2022/early 2023, and did a terrific job. The new system is quieter, safer, and more efficient, plus we now have air conditioning, which is becoming more and more necessary on the Peninsula. Dave Hamburger was able to advise us about all different kinds of equipment, and he chose the system that would be best for our house. Sometimes contractors just do the same thing over and over again, but not these guys. The… Read more

We wanted to do energy efficiency upgrades, but didn’t know where to start or what we needed. David helped us put together a long-term plan and figured out what we needed. They put in wall insulation, redid the attic insulation, removed our gas furnace and air conditioner in the garage and installed a heat pump in the attic, and installed a heat pump water heater. At some point we’ll have them get our crawl space in order too. We are finally on the verge of being 100% electric and removing our g… Read more
